ABSTRACT
In this chapter1 I subsequently raise four issues and deal with them as they pertain to the question on the possibility of global ethics. The first issue is whether global ethics as it is understood nowadays is a new discipline in normative ethics. The second relates to what is considered to be the ideological content of today’s global ethics. The third issue is about the regulative principles of a global ethics for the future. The fourth relates to the ideal content of world citizenship for which a modest normative proposal, drawn from contemporary continental moral philosophy, is put forward.
